A giant indoor trampoline park with more than 150 interconnected trampolines is set to open in Lincoln this year.

The purpose built 29,000 square feet park on Sunningdale Trading Estate, off Dixon Close, will also have two airbags, slam dunk nets and super trampolines - with something for every member of the family to enjoy.

Trampoline, fitness classes and wall running classes will be on offer when the park opens late summer.

The £1m investment in the city will also bring 60 new jobs with it.

Jump-Inc already has parks at Sheffield, Leeds, Rotherham and Barnsley.

Chris Hayes, managing director, said: "Lincoln has been on our radar for some time as a key strategic location for our expansion plans.

"We know that there is great demand for our trampoline parks in the UK with over 150,000 jumpers coming through our doors in the first four months of our Parkgate (Rotherham) park opening.

"What better way to get fit and active while having fun.

"It's a huge investment in the city and we will be creating around 60 new jobs.

"We are keen to promote health, well being and quality family time - encouraging all ages to get active whilst having fun."

The park will operate seven days a week and will also feature a cafe, viewing gallery and six party rooms.

People on the streets of Lincoln gave the plans the thumbs up.

Aaron Kersey, a 22-year-old law student at the University of Lincoln, said: "I think it's a good idea, I've been to the one at Doncaster and I loved it.

"It's for all ages. It's chilled out and gives you a chance to be a kid.

"I'm leaving Lincoln soon but if it was here now I would definitely go. It would be good if they did a student night."

Retired 85-year-old Barbara Wright, from Skellingthorpe, said: "It looks like a good idea. It's not something I would do at 85 but it would be good for the youngsters - anything that keeps them off the streets is a good thing."

And 43-year-old Richard Baxter, who owns Goodies sweet shop in the city, said: "It's a good idea. I've got two children, who are 14 and 10, and they are very excited about it.
